That being said it really doesn't matter because the airjet is designed to interface with a heatsonk/heatpipe solution which is what that copper in the one picture is.
yeah, I was wondering about when these airjets arrive as aftermarket or preinstalled for the consumer market. Desktops are unlikely to have any issues with the width, but laptops might.
These "fans" are pretty interesting/impressive tech so it's nice to see them find their way into products. On the flip side, conventional fans may have worked as effectively in this particular use case given the apparent physical dimensions of the casing.
SATA Express WAS PCIe signalling, that was the entire point.
U.2 is x4 rather than x2, and terminates in SFF-8613 at the host end rather than a weird two-SATA-connectors-and-another-little-one kludge. Both share the same physical re-keyed SAS connector at the drive end, but that's it, the connectors are not electrically compatible due to pin reassignments for the extra 2 lanes.
Wow, this partnership between OWC and Frore sounds incredibly promising! The introduction of 32TB and 64TB SSD devices is a game-changer in the world of storage solutions. As data continues to grow at an unprecedented rate, having these high-capacity SSDs available is a dream come true for professionals and enthusiasts alike.

Is it just me, or are those airjet coolers significantly wider than the 2280 SSDs?lioncat55 - Tuesday, August 15, 2023 - link
They do look a bit wider. I don't think it will cause any issues.thestryker - Tuesday, August 15, 2023 - link
M.2 spec is 22mm wide, and these are 27.5mm wide.That being said it really doesn't matter because the airjet is designed to interface with a heatsonk/heatpipe solution which is what that copper in the one picture is.

I read this as 32GB and 64GB SSDs and was really confused.Cool to see Frore getting more of their coolers installed.

If Frore is correct about subsequent generations showing improvements from node scaling, it could get amazing.There will be cost concerns, but there's always enterprise and slim/SFF products that could use this even if it's 5-10x more than a conventional fan.

I'm wondering how this case is connected to the motherboard.meacupla - Tuesday, August 15, 2023 - link
there is a U.2 connector (SATA express, but with PCIe signaling) in the backedzieba - Wednesday, August 16, 2023 - link
